Flexibility and adaptability define the Ahead service delivery model. Our primary focus is providing end-to-end expertise that augments your in-house capabilities. However, we also recognize that from time-to-time you encounter specialized needs and budgetary restrictions that require creative arrangements. No matter the circumstance the one constant is our ability to deliver authentic, dependable and inspired I.T. counsel and expertise.

Custom statement of work – akin to the traditional consulting engagement, a Custom Statement of work details a fixed project scope of work at a mutually agreed upon rate over a specified period of time. This gives you the advantage of introducing highly talented resources into your organization without the long-term commitment and cost of fringe and other benefits associated with hiring full-time employees.

Ahead consultants are steeped in our goal-oriented culture, arriving at your site prepared to hit the ground running.

Virtual Employee – is typically a short-term engagement where we provide talent for a fixed amount of time or project specific. Clients usually rely on this strategy to back-fill eliminated positions, supplement the work force during periods or to add expertise that may be lacking in highly specialized areas of your operation given new deployments.

Virtual Block of Hours – allows you to plan for, secure and use our specialized services on an as needed basis. The advantage here is that the time is pre-arranged, which can result in pricing and availability assurance that the Virtual Employee does not provide. The Virtual Block of Hours also makes it possible for you to schedule for specific needs in a particular area of expertise, ensuring your organization never lacks the talent needed to achieve exceptional results. This arrangement requires little lead time or advanced planning, so it’s perfect when you are confronted with unanticipated resource needs that cannot be met internally.
